Marker assisted selection in livestock
Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science, 1996With the rapid development of genome maps of livestock, many genetic markers are becoming available. These markers usually have no affect on animals in their own right, their value is that they allow the inheritance of sections of chromosome to be followed in suitable pedigrees. How then may genetic markers be used in livestock breeding?

Markers, Maps, and Marker-Assisted Selection
2020DNA marker analysis, combined with linkage and quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses, has drastically changed the scheme of citrus breeding by enabling the marker-assisted selection (MAS) of a promising scion at the early seedling stage. This technique has greatly enhanced breeding efficiency by minimizing the period of trait evaluation at the ...

Marker assisted selection in crop plants
Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture, 2005Genetic mapping of major genes and quantitative traits loci (QTLs) for many important agricultural traits is increasing the integration of biotechnology with the conventional breeding process. Exploitation of the information derived from the map position of traits with agronomical importance and of the linked molecular markers, can be achieved through ...

Whole genome marker-assisted selection.
CABI Reviews, 2010Abstract Most applications of genomic selection (GS) have so far been in animals, especially dairy cattle, although theoretical studies have also been conducted for maize. For the last 50 years, commercial breeding programmes for dairy cattle have been based on the progeny test scheme, which results in an average generation interval of ...

A general framework for marker-assisted selection
Theoretical Population Biology, 2007Early simulation studies have showed that the inclusion of epistatic components (especially the additive-by-additive effects) into marker-assisted selection (MAS) can improve selection efficiency for a short-term breeding program. In this study I extend Lande and Thompson's theory to incorporate both additive and non-additive effects into MAS with ...
